RE: big buck
Good luck!
I once saw a monster in my stand which I guessed was at least 12 or more points. He came in at 20 yards but never came out of the thicket to give me a shot. That is the first and only time anyone in a mile radius saw him. The following spring I foud his sheds laying 10 yards from my stand. He counted out at 16 points with tons of mass. That was three years ago. To this day not a person in the area has seen him again.
